  • How to Crochet Corner to Corner Afghan. This concept is really easy and is a trending idea for crocheters at this time. The appeal is in the speed of which one of these can be done. Once you get half way, each side is decreased and you will get faster and faster. For the free pattern, you can find it at: bit.ly/1GArZ0y #crochet #learntocrochet #crochettutorial .

    Of all the C2C videos I have watched on RUclips, this is the easiest one to watch, AND to work along with. Mikey, thank you very much for the ease at which you teach, and indeed, leaving no one behind.

    I just have to thank you. After initially being introduced to crochet by a friend I had to rely Langley on RUclips for skill developtment. You are, by far, the best instructor I've found that isn't in real life. You're clear, concise, and don't let your hands, lighting, or camera angles get in the way. You neither talk down to me or over my head. Thank you.

    The link on my website in the link of the video has info on the actual one I am doing. Mine was 44" wide before decreasing. I was doing a show sample. I used 12 balls total of Red Heart Boutique Midnight. It's a higher end yarn so you need more yarn as there is less yardage on the ball.

    I have been trying to make this type of afghan for YEARS and I could never follow the written instructions and it still amazes me that all I had to do was watch Mikey do this to the second row and it all clicked. Thank you Crochet Crowed for helping me with this one.

    Thank goodness I found your tutorial. I started the corner to corner and could not find a tutorial but started anyway. Now I know I'm doing the increase correctly. I was concerned as I start the decrease rows but now know how to do them. You are always so concise and do enough rows that we know what we are doing. Thank you

    Thank you for making this video easy to follow. I have just completed my first C2C lapgahn from watching this and couldn't believe how quickly it worked up. I was intimidated at first because of the Intermediate skill level as I always thought I was just a beginner. But after following your instructions, I am now eager to stretch my hooks and see what else I can make. Thank you again. :-)

    @ Jill Ward..Build your afghan until the sides are the size you want them to be then to make the rectangle one side is worked the same as it has been all along with the sl st,chain 3, and 3 dc,then you ch 6 and continue with your row but on the other side you want to sl st into the space at the end, flip your work, sl st over 3 stitches(to move you over to the next hole where you would normally sl st and chain up 3) then chain up 3 and do 3 more dc's,then continue the row as usual, this will move the row over some...does that help?
